FREEDOM DOESN'T GIVE US THE RIGHT TO DO WHAT WE PLEASE, BUT TO DO WHAT PLEASES GOD!
That Fateful Fourth, by Roger Robicheau
Our will was strong, our want was great Let freedom reign, what better fate
We journeyed long from Plymouth Rock The time was clear to end all talk
That fateful fourth our courage showed
That fateful fourth our courage showed Americans - and how we glowed
We won the right to be self known
We’ll always cherish those we’ve lost,
We won the right to be self known
Our Independence, clearly shown
The test of time has stood us tall
The test of time has stood us tall
Through bravest hearts, some forced to fall
We’ll always cherish those we’ve lost, Their gift to us, their total cost
Today we face another foe
Today we face another foe
And stand together, all do know
Please often pray to God above
for the country we all love.
for the country we all love.
The Founding Fathers left one legacy not celebrated on Independence Day but which affects us all. It's the national debt.
The country first got into debt to help pay for the Revolutionary War. Growing ever since, the debt stands today at a staggering $11.4 trillion - equivalent to about $37,000 for each and every American. And it's expanding by over $1 trillion a year
